    No clue about downtown, but the Roosevelt WF in North Seattle still has it.

    Has anyone been to Bambino's lately? I visited about a year ago and remember good pizza and a great tap list (Boneyard, Dark Star), but a Seattle friend said he heard it has gone to hell of late, new owners or something.

    Question: Do Reuben's and Fremont sell their bottles from their taprooms as well? I looked and I couldn't find an answer. I know in Portland it can be hit and miss at the actual taproom (and sometimes even more expensive) when it comes to bottle selection versus what I can find at a bottle shop. I'm assuming the same is true in Seattle?

    In all likeliness Reuben's will be selling all available bottles - anything that was at a store but not the brewery is likely old, and not in a good way. Fremont will have plenty of its staples but none of the barrel aged stuff, which is still lingering in some stores

    Fremont should also have Sour Weisse bombers, something I've never seen for sale anywhere else.

    I can only speak to Fremont. You can buy bombers and cans of their regular lineup at the taproom. And these will be cheaper than you can find at retailers.

    On the plane to Seattle at the moment. Is CC Bbomb and KDS still hanging around stores downtown or do I need to go outside the city to get these beers?

    Cheers,
    Jason

    CC B-bomb is still around but I'm afraid KDS is long gone.

    Thanks BuckeyeOne and congrats on the win Monday night. Even as a UM person, was pulling for the Big Ten.

    Still reveling in the win, especially given the number of obnoxious and smug Ducks fans I have at my disposal.

    Isn't that all of them? Except maybe the strippers, er I mean cheerleaders. I was a Michigan fan as a teenager, so I still don't really like OSU. But, I had to pull for them the other night, as I truly everything Nike, including their college.

    I'm having a hard time understanding why a UM fan wouldn't like the Beavers.

    I haven't really been a UM fan for a long time now, but I kinda like Harbaugh, so maybe I'll pick 'em back up.:wink: And yes, I like Beavers very much, thank you!:grimacing:

    No love for Two Beers around here...

    Is this a question or an observation? Regardless, Two Beers gets no love around here because every beer I've had from them is meh at best and virtually no one on this forum ever mentions them and their BA reviews and ratings are middle of the road. When you look above of the list of must-hits and highly recommended breweries, Two Beers doesn't even come close to making the list.
